St. John's Sunday School
Since 1916 the children of St. John's have been the happy heart of our church community. We are an exuberant and reverent place where children learn confidence in their connection to God, grow it, maintain it, and pass it on through our Lord, Jesus Christ.
Sunday School meets every Sunday at 10:30 am and 5 pm
